Uh huh. I thought this would have some decent insight as to memory usage or something. Nope. It's just clinically stupid. His first example is pretty much the same either way. I would say the "better" way is a little more inv

An opinion would be something like "I think it's good that those kids were shot". You could say that all day and people would not like you, but no one could do anything about it. What Alex Jones did was deny reality. He sugge

If Jackson signed a three-year contract, then the Browns would be paying him for three years regardless. Even if they fired him. Then he could go work for another team and get paid by both teams. Regardless, a coach is given some leeway the

So, the car puts itself in a situation it can't resolve, then just abdicates responsibility at the last moment. That's still not a good look. And it does mean that FSD isn't to be as trusted as it is because if the car is put

Lincoln died in 1865. If you were born in the 50s, there’s a chance. But most people don’t live to 90. For me, that person would be 115 when I was born for our lives to overlap. Yes, history is closer than we think, but it still moves on

I also initially read it as "this is an example of the type of category that would have the requirement". Which doesn't preclude other categories also needing the requirement.

Ok, but neither of those are about work visas. If I'm applying for a work visa, it's because I expect to be in that country to work, not as a permanent resident.

No, you were saying that accessibility is subservient to efficiency. And you were explicitly told several times that your hypothetical efficiency just does not exist. So constantly saying, "Yeah, but what if " looks like you&#x

That's a bit conceited. Animals have inner lives as well. They have their own thoughts and feelings. And sometimes those feelings are anger and their thought is to kick the shit out of those assholes over there. Fuck man, my cats occas

And he's using his hypothetical to illustrate the point that: even while some benefits may exist, there are other considerations besides one measure of efficiency. That's the point you're not getting. People get your point.

To be fair, you are constructing an entirely hypothetical car scenario where oil filter placement leads to a 5-10% increase in fuel efficiency. We're already in the land of the fucking ridiculous. Let's have fun with it.

Obviously the title is cheeky as a lot of attributes ascribed to Autistic people are also stereotypes about Germans. The site is exposing the reality that you can come to the same place from different directions. For example, if you are mor

I always looked at the Costco law degree as more of a commentary on Costco/price clubs than of degree mills. Like Costco sells everything and eventually that includes education.

To be fair, the range of results were from 112 to 136. Just over one standard deviation. Like if you gave those tests again, you'd likely get a slightly different order. Basically, 131 - 136 is kind of a tie. Now, 5 and 6 are basically

The thing about IQ and EQ being on different ends of a spectrum is kind of wrong. Turns out, those people whose minds work more efficiently, do so across the board. In other words, smarter people are better able to gauge people's emoti

You realize that your anecdote here is itself virtue signaling, right? Because, I’m sure multiple people here could tell similar stories with the political leanings of the groups involved reversed.

Why not make your rate 15% higher than your desired rate? That way your “discounted” rate is the rate they should have paid and they feel like they got a deal.
